Step 4: Keep an Eye on Your Mobile
After verifying your ID number, SASSA’s system will fire off a text message (SMS) to the mobile number they have on file for you. This SMS contains a critical secure link, so be patient as you wait for it to arrive. It may take a few minutes to come through.
Step 5: Follow That Secure Link
Once SASSA’s SMS hits your mobile device, you’ll see it contains a single-use secure link. Carefully copy and paste that link into your computer’s browser or simply tap it on your mobile. This personalized link is just for you and will expire after one use to maintain security.
Step 6: Provide Your New TymeBank Details
Following the secure link will take you to a form collecting your updated banking information. Pay close attention to the details SASSA requires here:
The name of your new bank (TymeBank)
The type of TymeBank account (savings, cheque, etc.)
Your brand new TymeBank account number
The associated branch code for your TymeBank account
This is arguably the most important step, so take your time. Double check the account number and branch code entries. Any errors here could result in delays or missing payments until corrected.
Step 7: Submit and Wait for Confirmation
With all your new TymeBank details entered accurately, click the “Submit” button. SASSA should then process your banking update request behind the scenes. To confirm they’ve received it, you may get an additional SMS notification or a message directly on the website.
